Spouse's first data with mr g-umpy, she thought it was ok and comfortable, but didn't like the smell of fuel.
Whats the latest thinking on this? Andy Draper seemed unconcerned about it.
It seems to be just after take off but hangs around sometimes, I dont think I have a leak.
Is it coming in through the wheel well, through the hatch between the seats, in the wing routes, in the vents or door seal?
What happened about the batch of mono old style tubes that was going to be made?
Can you get any sort of carbon absorber?

Graeme,

Firstly throw away all the jubilee clips on the fuel lines and get some good automotive clips that pull in round. Then look at changing the filler neck tube to alu or stainless, using the existing tube only to connect the ends.
That should get rid of the fumes.
